Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.

[Woodsport]

Hi chaps, i am being approached more and more these days from mk1 owners enquiring about fitting the celica 2zz-ge engine into a mk1.So i have decided to do the research into what this conversion would cost including the donor vehicle (smashed celica basically!)

I would be interested in anyones thoughts on this conversion and if you think it would be popular etc. We have never done one yet but it will be a walk in the park for us compared to the v6 and 3s-gte swaps we currently do.

In a nutshell this would give 190bhp, rev like a madman and retain the lightweight characteristics of the stock engine.

All opinions good or bad welcome.

Just a quick note to say i have a Supercharged 2zz engine package coming here in about 4-5 weeks time, these are extremely rare, and it won't hang around for more than a few days before someone snaps it up. The engine package is being offered as a full conversion by me only and not as just an engine for sale.

If you're interested in owning a MK1 2zz supercharger with 6 speed gearbox drop me a PM, thanks Paul.

Quick thread revival, many years on and we have completed 5 more 2zz-ge Mk1 conversions, they have been somewhat refined over the years with a definitive mod list and upgrades along the way.

This is the current 2zz-ge Mk1 we have built, it still needs a few cosmetic final touches.

Thread update, we now have all of the major components on the shelf to make this engine install a full plug and play swap without the need to weld chassis hangers.

The bolt in mount assembly is here.... http://www.woodsport.org/joomla/inde...2-engine-mount

The gear cable bracket is here... http://www.woodsport.org/joomla/inde...-cable-bracket

And i also supply a full plug and play wiring harness for £400 with me supplying all donor harness parts, no need to send me anything from your car. This is a turnkey harness, plug it in and go.

The above parts means you buy a 2zz-ge Celica donor car, or a Celica engine and gearbox, and it becomes a straight fitment, the only thing you need to fabricate or have made is the exhaust system.

Brilliant work Paul! I would like to try a 2zz at some point, and this would be the route I'd take. Just need to get my Mk1.5 and V6 going again first!

Hope you've been well during lockdown.
